In that article, I talked about recipes like Chocolate &
Sea Salt Sticky Bites, Blueberry & Chocolate Coconut Rice
Cakes and Crispy Rice Omelets. You can't argue that those
don't sound tasty (and yes, when you eat them with coconut oil you
can still be in ketosis, you high-fat zealot, you).

Anyways, the photo above was taken a few weeks ago at my Team Timex
triathlon camp, during which Lim conducted a cutting-edge sweat
sodium analysis on me (which we discuss along with many other nerdy
nutrition topics in this podcast episode).

Lim is a sports physiologist, cycling coach, and a founder
of Skratch Labs, a manufacturer of performance
hydration mixes and the world’s first active nourishment company.
Beginning his coaching career with Jonathan Vaughters’ TIAA-CREF
cycling development team, Lim developed a method of testing for
biological markers of performance enhancing drugs that ultimately
led to cycling’s Biological Passport.

Lim was director of sport science for Garmin and RadioShack cycling
teams and is the only American scientist to have worked and cooked
for teams at the Tour de France. He has not only worked with
dozens of top American cyclists to improve their performance and
nutrition, but has also worked with guys like Lance Armstrong and
George Bush .

Lim, Skratch labs, sweat sodium, sports nutrition or anything else
